Everyone has that image of the perfect fantasy home they’d buy if money were no object. Maybe it’s a quaint cottage nestled in a friendly little hamlet that no one has ever heard of, or maybe it's a grand mansion situated on a tropical private island.

Of course each one of our fantasy homes comes with its own must have fantasy features. Some people want a helicopter pad on the roof, some just want a 20 acre garden. But which feature came out on top as the nation’s favourite luxury features? 

A group of 2000 people were asked; if money were no object, what features would their dream house have? 

Anyone expecting Johnny Depp level properties, sporting lagoons, and private zoos might as well look away now. The number one feature isn’t quite as lavish as you might expect.

43% of those asked chose a balcony as their must have feature. Not quite a private jetty with your very own yacht tethered to it, but still a nice addition to any home.

Unsurprisingly, the top 5 features are primarily entertainment features, with over a quarter of those asked wanting a library, a gym or a cinema. The UK public clearly likes the idea of having their favourite hobbies closer to home and who wouldn't like to be able to watch their favourite film on a 960 inch screen?

Whilst the top five are standard of most luxury properties, the bottom four are a little more specialist. 1 in 4 people said they wanted either a wine cellar or an aquarium, 1 in 5 people said they wanted a bowling alley and 17 % of those asked, said they’d like a personal nightclub.

Looking at the table, the people of Britain obviously shun some of the more unrealistic, mega luxury features, in favour of more practical (maybe not so much the nightclub) luxuries.
